The Retort

ASEMC
April 20, 1982
Volume 36, No. 20
Three months of grief,
sorrow, anger and possibly a
little reputation building came
to a head Sunday morning.
Student senators approved
budgets, and they were very
kind and possibly even
generous to the Retort Budget.
We have received less money
from the Associated Students
than the Retort received last
year, but most budgets were cut
so drastically that I feel very
fortunate.
Coming into the job of
Editor was a very difficult thing
and I still don't feel I have the
whole jist of the job down yet,
but one thing that has been
done this year, which probably
has never been done in the past
is that relations between the
college newspaper and the
student senators have
maintained a fairly positive
level.
I guess what I am saying is a
definite thank you kindly to all
of the senators for listening to
my requests and even
approving many of them. I had
plans to do several dynamic
things because I thought that it
would be extremely difficult to
both make points and keep
them. I don't know whether
you as senators were playing
favorites or whether I just did
my homework.
I did my homework and I
argued on logic and not
emotion. I guess that worked.
Oh well. Thanks. We're
gonna be hotter than hell next
year. It won't be too many
years before the Retort is self
sufficient. That's our
goal...we're gonna do hank
you, thank you oh t you
thank you.

Fat Cats, not the poor, are the
real 'welfare cheaters'
ASEMC Retort page two
Jack
Anderson
Washingtm
Merry-Go-Round
WASHINGTON--The
cost of welfare for wealthy
individuals and big business
is far greater than anything
the government spends on
welfare on mothers who are
struggling to feed and clothe
their children. In fact, if you
added up all the tax breaks
and other subsidies the
government gives to
business, it would come to
about $100 billion a year.
There are many ways
welfare is handed out to the
fat cats. One of them is
through the capital gains
tax. Cheating on this tax is
wide-spread.
According to the Internal
Revenue Service, 99 percent
of American wage earners
pay taxes on their incomes.
But only 56 percent of those
who make money from
capital investments pay
what they owe. Those are
the government's own
figures.
The tax collectors have a
simple suggestion for
catching these capital-gains
cheaters. All that is needed
is for brokers to report their
transactions to the IRS. But
the brokers don't like this
idea. They say the
paperwork would be
backbreaking. What they
don't bother to say, though,
is that they are already
reporting every transaction
to their customers. A copy
for Uncle Sam wouldn't be
all that much trouble.
That's just one example of
the way the rich are coddled.
Here's another: Back
during the Great Depres-sion,
the government
allowed corporations to sell
tax-exempt construction
bonds. The idea was to
encourage business and put
people back to work. The
tax exemption is still on the
books, and it has been used
to finance such boondoggles
as construction of golf
courses.
And, finally, there's the
little-known provision of the
tax laws that lets the
country's big defense
contractors put off their tax
bills. The Treasury
estimates that if this
loophole were closed it
would bring in $19 billion by
1987. But the defense
contractors have gotten so
used to this subsidy that
they now can't do without it.
They have warned that if the
tax break is taken away
from them, they'll simply
pass the buck--the big
bucks, that is--right along to
the government in their
next contracts.
President Reagan's
budget-cutters are worried
about the undeserving poor.
The ones they should really
be worried about are the
undeserving rich.
GUNBOAT DIPLOM-ACY:
Ten years ago, we
broke the story that the
United States had secretly
intervened in the internal
politics of Chile. The white
House had tried to block
Chile's president, Salvador
Allende, from coming to
power. It became a major
scandal.
Now the Reagan adminis-tration
may be getting
involved in a similar plot in
the Dominican Republic.
Already, American arms
are being rushed to this
Central American nation--
ostensibly to help ensure
that the May 16 presidential
election goes smoothly.
But the real reason for the
speeded-up arms deliveries
may be to prevent the
Dominicans from holding a
Wont to
adverti se?
Ca l I the
Retort
657-2.1V1
that the favorite candidate
will never become presi-dent.
The likely winner is
Jorge Blanco. In Gen.
Lachapelle's eyes, Blanco is
a flaming communist.
So the general's lobbyists
in Washington have been
pleading with the Pentagon
to expedite the weapons that
the Dominican army has
ordered from the United
States. Lachapelle's men
freely admit that the
general will use his U.S.-
purchased guns to seize
power if he thinks Blanco
has a chance of winning the
election.
The arms shipments
include 1,200 M-16 auto-matic
rifles. That's more
than enough firepower to
free election. A few words of
explanation:
The Dominican army's
chief of staff, Gen. Manuel
Lachapelle, is determined
make a crucial difference in
a country that is only half
the size of Indiana.
This apparent return to
gunboat diplomacy has gone
largely unnoticed in the
uproar over El Salvador and
Nicaragua.
The Pentagon brass
appear to have swallowed
Gen. lachapelle's story of a
communist takeover in the
Dominican Republic hook,
line and sinker. Unfortu-nately,
all the general has
come up with in the way of
evidence is some imflamma-tory
wall graffiti--and his
own opinion that Jorge
Blanco is a communist.
Our sources in the State
Department say that Gen.
Lachapelle is wrong. They
say Blanco isn't a commu-nist
at all, but a left-of-center
Social Democrat.
One expert described him as
the Willy Brandt of the
Caribbean.
In any case, the United
states is supposed to
promote free elections, not
prevent them.

Reggie Roving. Let's Get a Few
Things Straight...
Last week I did write one
little ditty about budgets for
this issue but everyone except
A.L. Jones disapproved of it
including the editor so they
pretty much told me in not too
many words to:
"Write something else, this is
terrible, they'll kill us, they'll
demand to find out if you really
are Gary Anderson. This is the
sort of trash that gets everyone
mad at us!"
So here I am with not much
more of a topic than nothing,
so I asked my big brother
Reggie (who incidentally now
has a job with a future) what he
does when he is in a slump. He
told me to either give up writing
or make a list, Well before I
make the list I want to clear up
a few things: For those of you
on the floor, the editor Tom
Puckett is NOT running for a
senate position. Sure, at one
time he thought that he could
get more money for the Retort
by being a senator and he told
me he got an "A" in
Parliamentary Procedure, but
he isn't running for the position
because he says "I'd rather
watch them and snicker,
besides, if I were a senator, I'd
have to write lots of nice things
about myself. The whole staff
would hate me, and Cindy
Favero would stop being nice
to me."
But anyway, here's another
fact: In "Beneath the Rims,"
every character in there is a
caricature of someone who
works on this floor, and
although the staff hasn't got
too political with the parody,
it's getting more so each week.
I guess I'm supposed to be Jim.
ha.
I did buy my girlfriend
flowers though. She seems
real happy about it. She was
actually being nice to me this
week for about three days in a
row. I have a new one, she's
even pretty cute. I think she
should be a cheerleader,
although she looks like a
basketball player. But anyway
who cares really? I know you
don't. _
Ever read the Sensuous
Man? It's pretty good, and for
sure it will get you more women
if you read it. This week I have
compiled a list of tips and
warnings for you men. It's
really spring (until it snows
and melts for the 88th time) and
I know you men are looking for
women. So here's a few tips
from my own version of "The
Sensuous Man". Go get 'em
men...
1. Refrain from using the
following terms around a
female unless you are referring
to her vacuum cleaner or you
are very very drunk: hoser,
hosebag, hose head or
hosemonster.
2. Don't beat her with broken
bottles.
3. When eating dinner with her
in Saga (Uh, excuse me, the
other side) try not to throw up
in yours or her food.
4. Take vitamins so that you
look healthy.
5. Don't use the words jam,
hump, or pork around her
unless you are talking about
your mom's strawberry jam, a
camel's hump, or the quality of
the bacon you had for
breakfast.
6. If you are in a bar and you
are very drunk, and you meet
(pick up) an interesting young
19 year old, don't tell her your
life story. She doesn't want to
hear it and she'll hate you
forever and you will be
embarrassed next time you see
her and she'll tell all her friends
about you.
7. Never go out with the sister
of a friend. She'll tell your
friend all about you and your
friend will use it against you
next time you need some cash.
8. Don't try anything kinky on
the first date. Sheep and
grapefruits don't turn a girl on
after one night out with you.
9. Practice tongue exercises.
10. Remember that the terms
"Grow Up" and "Eat Merde"
probably mean she doesn't like
you.
So there you have it. The
list of the ten greatest tips you'll
need to stay and "get skin" with
girls. Go home and try it now.
Oh yeah, almost forgot the
most important thing: it's o.k.
to use the words sow, horse,
hog, giant, Baby Huey, cow,
pig, 'this big around', or buffalo
unless you are referring to the
animals mentioned, the
cartoon character, Goliath (of
David and ...) or a swimming
pool, or at a secret fraternity
meeting.

BENEATH
THE
RIMS
The plot thickens in
"Beneath the Rims" this
week as Nick is still hard at
work on his campaign trail
for ASEMC Senate. It's
been a tough week for the
young man who means well
but he doesn't know it yet
nor does anybody else. This
is the eternal dilemma.
Let's give him credit for
being persistent. Annoying
but persistent. And now as
if Nick didn't have enough
problems, a female is warm
for his form. Leona
Chesepeke can't explain it
but her friend Mary Clout is
trying to convince her it's a
mirage.
Leona: What?
Mary: Huh?
Leona: Didn't you say
something?
Mary: No, I thought you
said something.
Leona: Nope, it wasn't me.
Mary: Hmmmm.
Leona: Well, let's put
content into this episode.
Mary: I totally agree.
Leona: Okay, here's the
scoop. Last Friday I saw
him out on the lawn selling
those sno-cones for votes and
I said to myself, "What a
twirp."
Mary: You're not alone.
Lama: Anyway, I didn't
think of him all weekend
and then on Monday it hit
me like a ton of sheep dip. I
found myself following him
all around campus.
Mary: You are alone there.
Leona: Wherever he went
all you had to do was look a
few feet behind him and you
would see me admiring each
stumbling step.
Mary: That was you?
Leona: Uh huh.
Mary: But Leona, you were
dressed in a top coat,
sunglasses and hat.
Leona: Well, he's a loser, I
didn't want to be noticed.
Mary: Come on Leona, snap
out of it. You can't have a
crush on Nick O'Backbite.
It would go against every
biological law that was ever
conceived by the world's
most respected biologists. A
perfectly normal human
being such as yourself,
falling for a different
species. Nick is a Canis
Loserus so it just wouldn't
work. My God, what would
your parents think if you
brought him home and he
started talking about that
time he was a kid and he was
crowned King Pea at the
Red Lodge Pea Festival in
July of 1967. Geez Leona,
they would show him the
front door faster than you
can say, "Shut up Nick."
Leona: Granted, fascinating
he isn't, but...
Mary: Good Lord, he can't
even pass an Interpersonal
Communication exam.
Leona: Why does this have
to happen to me? I go to
church, I eat my vegetables,
I make my bed every
morning, I bus my own tray
in SAGA...
Mary: You do?
Leona: Well, you know that
guy who has that cleaning
bottle hanging out of his
pocket? He always looks too
busy so I don't want to
bother him.
Mary: Am I even con-vincing
you at all that this
guy will burn your brains
more than MATH 450
Leona: (Nick is slowly
approaching the girls)
Darn, here he comes. See
look at me, I can't take my
eyes off of him.
Mary: Come on Leona, you
can do it! They said Carrie
Nation couldn't do it, but she
did. They said the "Retort"
ASEMC Retort page four
would fold, but only the
pages do. They said being on
UAB was boring...well,
(clears throat) that's not the
point. The point is why
screw up your life by
admiring that? Wake up
Leona! Be yourself!
Be...(CRASH! BOING!
CLAMMOR! B-R-E-A-K!)
See, now just look at that.
It's disgusting. Nick just
fell into the Jabberwocky ice
cream cooler and tipped
over the popcorn machine
and is proceeding to eat up
his mess. You want to go out
with that?
Leona: Is he alright? Will
he live?
Mary: Sheeez! Dear, you're
fired as a respected person.
(Jim runs over to the
struggling Nick)
Jim: If I tip over the pop
machine, do I have to drink
all I spill? (who wrote this?)

Svehla Impresses EMC
Photo by Bob Pace
Bozeman artist Rudolf
Svehla capped an exhibit of
his works with a reception
and slide show last Friday
night in the first floor
gallery in the Liberal Arts
Building on EMC's campus.
Svehla is originally from
Cechloslovakia and more
recently taught high school
art in Bozeman. He
currently is a graduate
student at Montana State
University.
Bozeman artist
Rudolf Svehla
His colorful, original, and
somewhat grid-like paint-ings
were done in what
Svehla calls a "human" size.
He feels that if a painting is
too big, it loses context and
the painter loses his control
of and relationship to the
painting.
His paintings reflect that
opinion, and as art student
George Place put it, "I was
impressed!"
The independent art show,
comprised of student work, will
be exhibited in the LA gallery,
on first floor Liberal Arts
building.. Come over and see it!
in New Mexico
For the past three years,
an associate professor of
Psychology has been doing
research on laboratory
animals to determine causes
of masochistic behavior.
Dr. Marvin Bulgatz has
been assisted in his research
by Debra Archer from
Worden, MT who is an
undergraduate student
majoring in Psychology.
They have co-authored a
paper which the two of them
will present to members of
the Rocky Mountain
Psychological Association,
April 28, in Albuquerque,
New Mexico.
"There are certain
conditions under which
animals will show masochis-tic
or self-punitive behav-ior,"
Bulgatz said. "At the
same time, there are
conditions under which
animals will not show this
type of behavior. Without
getting too technical, these
same conditions appear
to either cause or not cause
masochistic behavior in
humans."
The title of their paper is
"Self-Punitive Behavior:
Affects of Masochistic
Acquisition and Spaced
Extension Trials."

Sherry Kuntz-a senior
majoring in Public Admin-istration.
Platform: As a candidate for
Student Senate, I believe
there are two issues
pertinent to this election.
Specifically, they are
involvement and money.
Making every student
Senator more accessible to
students is a number one
goal for me. In order for this
to occur, we need to rid the
image of a Senator as being
on a different level
compared with students.
We have to remember that
we are all here for the same
purpose-achieving an
education. In order for a
governing body like student
government to operate
effectively it needs input
from those it affects (in this
instance that's YOU, the
student). EMC students
have had a history of being
apathetic. As a student at
various institutions, I've
seen what works and what
doesn't work; and believe
me apathy does NOT work.
In order for students to get
what they want, more action
and involvement must be
taken.
Having to work my way
through school (as do most
EMC students) I realize the
importance of proper and
efficient spending of each
and every dollar. As a
Senator on Ways and Means
(the committee that spends
your $20 per quarter
activity fee), I've learned to
appreciate this aspect more.
As a candidate, I stand firm
on the idea of spending
student monies on
STUDENT affairs; not on
administrative areas such
as salaries.
As for my qualifications, I
believe I have a well-rounded
background. Since
I've been a senator at EMC I
have served on various
committees including Ways
and Means, Campus Safety
Committee, Presidential
Search and Screening
Committee for student
affairs, and Selection
Committee for Distinguish-ed
Professor in the area of
teaching.

4Ib
Mike Dallas-a junior from
Lewistown is majoring in
accounting.
I am running for the
position of student senator
because I would like to
become more involved with
EMC. I feel that there is
much more to gain from
college than what is learned
in the classroom. A position
on the student senate would
be a rewarding experience.
Some of the student senate
functions are administering
and distributing the
quarterly student activity
fees, forming various
policies concerning student
affairs and acting as a link
between students, faculty
and the administration. I
would like to take part in
some of the decision making
that takes place within the
student senate. I have
attended EMC for three
years now and I feel that I
am qualified for the
position.
Jim Martin-a senior from
Malta, Montana is majoring
in Music Education.
Platform: Having just
completed a quarter of
Ways & Means negotiations
of budget requests and
closing out my first term as
a senator, I found a great
understanding of possible
economic manipulations,
ways of maintaining a solid
ground for keeping student
interests foremost, and
certainly for gaining
knowledge to do a better job.
It has really been a learning
year and a very good
experience for me. I hope
for the chance to serve
student interests again this
coming year, and I'd
appreciate your vote.
Rory J. Barnaby-a senior in
Accounting.
Platform: Having served on
Senate for the past two
years, I have found it
necessary to effectively
communicate before formu-lating
decisions. I often
found that the final actions
of Senate did not accurately
represent the will of the
student body. With this in
mind, it is my goal to
continue to encourage
students to involve them-selves
in the decision
making process. Thank you.

Tammy Klein-a sophomore
majoring in Education.
Platform: Hi, my name is
Tammy Klein and this is my
second year of running for
an ASEMC Student Senate
position. Last year I entered
the running knowing very
little of what would be
involved and the procedures
used in allocating money
and approving policy. After
serving a year I feel I have
learned tremendously and
-still have so much more to
learn in helping serve the
best interests of the
students. I know now how
the system functions and I
want very much to use this
knowledge in serving our
school. I am proud to be a
student at EMC and would
be even prouder to represent
you as a member on Student
Senate. I would be more
than happy to talk to you
about any questions or
suggestions for our school
and do my best to get things
done. I would appreciate
your support on 4/28/82.
See you at the Election
table.
Mike Birch-a sophomore
from Culbertson is majoring
in Psychology.
Platform: Having been
elected as a freshman
Senator and being very
involved with various
activities such as the
Triangle Day Care Board of
Directors, Issues and
Answers, Inter-Varsity and
a full academic load, I feel I
have become very qualified
to run for Senator at Large.
I have come to be very
interested about what goes
on for the students of EMC
and care very much about
the outcome of some very
major decisions. If students
have a problem in any area
within the system, please
feel free to let me know; and,
if elected, I will do my best to
work toward solving these
problems of EMC.
Russell Shaffer-a junior
majoring in Marketing.
Platform: Since I do not
belong to any on-campus
clubs or organizations, I will
not have any pet clubs or
organizations that I would
be prejudice for or against
before another. So I believe
I would be a very impartial
senator in all things,
especially when it comes to
allocating your funds. Next
year being a Legislative
year, we will be fighting for
funds in Helena. I feel I
could do a good job at it.

Michael Walz-Class of 83 is
majoring in Secondary Ed-
Biology.
Platform: To put it simply,
my aim is to increase the
effectiveness of student
budgeting. My primary
goal in this area is to
promote a non-biased
system of distributing
students' money. Secondly,
as next year is a legislative
year, I will lobby towards
putting EMC on the same
funding level as MSU and U
of M. This will give us the
flexibility to expand EMC to
meet increasing student
enrollment and needs.
Jeff Kinman-a senior
majoring in Biology.
Platform: My platform is
short, sweet, and to the
point. I will primarily work
towards establishing a more
equitable system for
distributing student money.
(i.e. distributing monies to
various clubs and organiza-tions).
I will also work on
expanding and stream-lining
the school of liberal
arts. (i.e. develop the four
year nursing degree located
entirely at Eastern and also
expanding the business
school so as to offer an
MBA). Finally, I will work
towards elevating EMC to
university status which will
add prestige to the school as
well as alleviate the problem
of lower salary bases for our
professors.
Genia D. Knox- a junior
from Columbus, has an
extended major in Psychol-ogy.
Platform: Currently I am a
junior attending EMC.
have been involved in Ski
Club as Vice President and
will be president for the 82-
83 year. I've also been
involved in Rodeo Club.
During the past three years
I have been a worker and
manager of the Game Room.
Another year was spent in
Pep Band. I am attempting
to acquire a well-rounded
education and I feel that if I
could serve for a year as a
student senator that this
would help to give me
valuable experience. I am
interested in EMC and want
to devote a portion of my last
year serving the college as
best I can.

Julie Knebel-a senior
majoring in Elementary
Education.
Platform: I have served for
two years on the ASEMC
Student Senate and I believe
I have gained an under-standing
of the various
operations and functions of
the Student Senate. As a
senator I had the oppor-tunity
to take part in much
debate and investigation
regarding the individual
budget requests for the
upcoming year. Through-out
the process, I became
aware of the serious
commitment a Senator must
possess and the vital role a
senator plays as student
leader. Unfortunately, not
enough students on this
campus care about student
government, but I believe
that an active and concerned
government can be very
effective here at EMC. I
would be an asset to the
Student Senate because I
listen and I care. Please give
me your support on April
28th.
T
Carolyn Fraser-a junior
from Big Timber is majoring
in Communication Arts.
Platform: I wish to be an
EMC senator in order that I
may help to better the
Student Government here
and the college as a whole. I
feel that the student body
needs to be represented
more fully in order to
encourage more enthusias-tic
participation by all of our
students.
I believe that we do not
promote our college widely
enough within the city of
Billings and the state of
Montana. One of my goals
will be to speak to 1982 high
school seniors and encour-age
them to attend our
school. • It is my firm belief
that involvement by
students in the college will
stimulate higher scholastic
achievements as well as self
satisfaction and recognition
from the outlying commun-ities.
Billie Miller-a junior from
Lewistown, majoring in
Accounting.
Platform: I am running for
Senator because I am
concerned about the
students of EMC. Having
been a senator for one year, I
feel I am well acquainted
with the needs of the
students. Being an
accounting major, I feel I
am qualified to assist in the
allocation of the student
activity fees (approximately
$200,000 per year). Each
student is entitled to receive
quality services for his
activity fee and I am
determined to see that
everyone gets his money's
worth. This goal cannot be
accomplished without your
help. Open communication
between senate and the
student body is essential
because your concerns
cannot be addressed unless
you make them known. As a
senator, I will continue to
listen to and act upon your
needs to enhance extra-curricular
life at EMC.

Randy Kloepfer-a sopho-more
majoring in Pre-Med.
Platform: In my past two
years at EMC, it has been
my experience that many
times student funding has
been misdirected. It is my
goal to realign priorities for
equally distributing student
monies. Also, as next year is
a legislative year, I would
have the opportunity to
lobby for more funds for the
entire college. This would
enable us to expand existing
schools and move towards
establishment of university
status.

fun. The audience was involved
and that made it even better. I
was a bit wary of the audience
when Rock (the wolf) told the
first joke, which I thought was
more than just funny but
unfortunately nobody laughed
at the wolf. It got rolling
though as soon as Gramma
started her one liners.
I really felt good after going
to see the Hairy Falsetto. All
of the actors and actresses did
an excellent job in their roles. I
thought it was cast very well.
Gary did an excellent job and I
suppose we should mention the
name of the light man, Bob
Durden.
Go if you can. The Hairy
Falsetto is a great play and its
funny and its easy to follow. It
will be shown next Friday at
noon over in LI 231.

EMC READERS'
THEATRE!
Ironic humor was alive
and well in England's
Middle Ages. This fact is
proven by the great classic
of 14th Century British
literature, "The Canterbury
Tales" by Geoffrey Chaucer.
On April 22,23, and 24, four
of tales will be performed in
a lively, animated style in
EMC's Readers' Theatre on
the sixth floor of the Liberal
Arts Building at 8:15 p.m.
each evening.
Some people who have
never seen a Readers'
Theatre production picture
a group of peopl standing in
a static row, droning away
from books held up to their
faces. Nothing could be
further from the truth.
Readers' Theatre is a unique
style of performing art that
combines dynamic oral
interpretation with the
costuming, lights, and sets
(although more simplified)
of a theatrical performance.
EMC's April present-ation
will give the audience
a view of marriage, Chaucer
style. The gallant, idealized
Knight, the saucy,experi-enced
Wife of Bath, the rich,
self deceiving Merchant,
and the licentious Franklin
tell their stories with
Chaucer both within and
without the tales, weaving
them together and separa-ting
them by his character
development. At times, the
tale being told and the style
of presentation clash with
humorous irony.
Dr. Anneke Jan Boden,
who has been directing
EMC's Readers' Theatre
since its inception at
Eastern, is also directing
this lively, fast-paced
production, which is being
presented in modern
English. Tami Christoffer-son
is Assistant Director.
The company of "Select-ed
Tales from Chaucer"
consists of Jeff Hannah,
John Gribas, Daryl Juden,
Randy Kloepfer, Agnes
Lemieux, Cindy Jesse,
Cindy Landers, John Boyd,
Doug Novakovich, George
Place, and Andy Watne. The
production is being handled
by George Place, and he and
Lee Saylor are in charge of
lighting.
Tickets for "Selected
Tales" are $2.75 for adults,
$.75 for EMC students, and
are available at the door.
The Hairy Falsetto was a
most bizarre play. Director
Gary Anderson worked long
and hard to get this just down
and even at the last moments
before curtain call he was
saying "If we only had one
more Week". The actors didn't
need one more week. Bess
Rogers, who portrayed the
Grandmother of Miss Little
Red Riding Hood, did a superb
job. Her role included several
dry mispronounciations of
several words and phrases that
made the audience roll in the
aisles.
The story line goes like this:
an innocent wolf (played by the
fun and funny Rock McLean)
is being tried for the murder of
grandmother. John Gribas
played the prosecuting
attorney and Little Red was
played by Cindy Warner. The
judge, a very funny bumbling
stumbling fun kinda character
was played by an old hat in the
drama department Jeff
Boschee. The trial is a funny
look at the world of fairy tails.
The wolf's defense attorney is
only himself and several
versions of the same story of
little red riding hood.
The play was more than just
funny, it was more than just
Director Gary David Anderson
And I am not giving up. Weezey.

HI Fl UPDATE
Hi-Fi verses Mid-Fi. by David Perkins
Hi-h Update is a new feature
this quarter discussing stereo
equipment. The writer, David
Perkins, is currently a senior
enrolled in music at EMC.
Although he plays French Horn, he
is a vocalist with concert
performance as a goal. He has a
variety of music tastes which include
opera, classical, jazz, and some
contemporary music. Being an
audiophile, he has listened to many
systems while building up his own.
Stereo equipment can be
classed into two categories,
Hi-Fi or Mid-Fi. Hi-Fi
equipment is only the best
electronics which present a
musical reproduction. Mid-Fi
equipment is only a poor
immitation of Hi-Fi. Many
mass production companies
sell Mid-Fi electronics but
label them Hi-Fi.
Most Mid-Fi electronics
are overrated and overpriced.
The companies which sell
Mid-Fi have seasonal sales
which help sell their
products. However, even the
so-called "sale" prices are
usually too high considering
the quality of their
equipment. A person can
easily spend more money
than necessary but get an
inferior product.
Hi-Fi equipment should be
judged by the undistorted
musical qualities. The
equipment should honor the
music. Hi-Fi should not be
judged on the basis of the
decibels produced. Even
though Hi-Fi equipment may
not be able to be heard ten
blocks away, it usually has
enough power to make a
person deaf if he so desires.
Before shopping for
equipment a person should
attend a live acoustic music
performance. He must not go
to a concert which uses
electronics to amplify the
sound because he needs to
hear the instruments
undistorted. By going to an
acoustic concert the
individual will have an
undistorted example to
compare equipment to. While
listening, the locations of the
different instruments and
the effect of the locations
upon the music should be
observed. If a person closes
his eyes, he should be able to
point out the locations of the
various instruments just by
listening. He not only should
be able to distinguish
whether an instrument is on
the right or the left, but
whether it is in the front or
the back.
A Hi-Fi system should not
only reproduce the tone of an
instrument, but it should also
reproduce the tone of an
instrument, but it should also
reproduce the feeling of its
location and the separation
between the instruments. In
other words, a person should
be able to close his eyes and
see the band on stage. A good
system should sound like a
live concert, not a couple of
boxes on a shelf.
Watch Hi-Fi Update for
coming articles on items such
as: amplifiers, pre-amps,
tuners, tape decks, turn-tables,
and speakers. The
articles will include tips on
how to evaluate stereo
equipment and cut all the
statistical garbage. There
will be warnings about
pitfalls and hungry salesmen.
So, be sure to follow Hi-Fi
Update to learn how to get
the best equipment for the
money.
History Dept.
The History Department
announces a lecture on
"Myths and Realities of
Norwegian Immigration,"
presented by Dr. Frederick
Hale, Professor of History at
the University of Oslo,
Norway.
The lecture will be given on
Thursday, April 22 1982, at
7:00 p.m. in the Liberal Arts
Building, Room 306.
Professor hale has taught
and done research at the
University of Oslo since
1977. He has published four
major books, and twenty-five
articles, chiefly in the fields of
Scandinavian history,
literature and religion, as
well as Scandinavian
emigration to North America
and Africa.
His lecture at Eastern
Montana College will discuss
factors influencing emigra-tion
from Norway, Norweg-ian
settlements in the United
States and the image and
reception of Scandinavians in
America.

Anti-Nuke Prof Speaks
by Todd Barnhart
(Ground Zero Week is April 18
through 24. In 120 cities
throughout America Ground Zero
organizers will be demonstrating to
the public what would be the effects
of a 1-megaton nuclear weapon
exploding at 6000 feet. In Billings,
Ground Zero Week is being
sponsored by Clergy and Laity
Concerned. Dick Ramsey is a
founder member of CLC. He is a
professor of biology at Rocky
Mountain College where I spoke
with him last week.
Nuclear war, if it comes,
will be the worst of human
atrocities, yet few people let
their fear and repulsion of
such a holocaust motivate
them to action. Dick Ramsey
was concerned about the
problem but it took the MX
shellgame of President
Carter to get Dick involved.
'It became clear that
something outrageous was
going through Congress
with no debate,' Dick said in
reference to the MX
deployment proposals. He
felt it would take a
grassroots-level protest to
prevent the proposals from
being passed, so he helped
form Community Peace
Advocates in the spring of
1981. That year they hosted
the MX Roadshow in Billings;
when that group disbanded
Dick helped form the Clergy
and Laity Concerned chapter
in town. CLC opposes not
only MX but social accept-ance
of war, an attitude Dick
Ramsey strongly dislikes.
Dick is not a radical or
troublemaker by appearance;
he dresses quietly and speaks
gently. But appearances say
little. He is obviously
concerned and works hard to
persuade others of the
madness of a nuclear
'defense.' Currently he is
helping CLC and other
groups statewide to collect
the necessary 18,000
signatures to put Initiative 91
on the fall ballot. Previously
he and CLC convinced the
City and County Planning
Board to come out in
opposition to deployment of
the MX locally.
'That night may be the
highlight of our group so far,'
Dick said. This victory gave
impetus to local anti-nuclear
efforts. I asked Dick what
EMC students could do to
become involved, recogniz-ing
that most had little spare
time. He had several
suggestions: r.
Write a letter to your
Congressional delegation,
urging support of the
Kennedy/Hatfield Nuclear
Freeze Resolution; further,
urge them to oppose MX
deployment and the develop-ment
of chemical/biological
weaponry. 'It only takes
about a half-hour to write;'
he said, 'and a letter really
does count...it is the most
effective use of time.'
Circulate petitions to place
Initiative 91 on the ballot.
For those of registration age,
contact the campus pastor,
Peter Monkres, about
alternatives to draft
registration.
On this last point Dick had
some strong words.
'Young men are not really
concerned with registration;
it seems trivial compared to
the draft but it is very
important, because if the
draft comes it would be rapid.
They would have very little
time to get their act together.
It is important for any young
person who is of registration
age to get in touch with his
own value systems to see if it
in any way conflicts with
military service. On the
bottom line military service is
not about learning a trade-it
is about killing enemy
soldiers.'
This statement makes it
clear that Dick's concern
reaches beyond the immedi-ate
threat of MX deployment;
quality human life is his deep
concern. He is encouraged at
the rapidly growing support
the anti-nuclear movement is
receiving. Request to see
'The Last Epidemic' are
increasing; 'It is exciting to
see demand for this
particular film,' he says. And
it3s exciting to see people like
Dick Ramsey becoming more
than concerned and getting
involved actively in the effort
to eliminate the nuclear
obsession and replace it with
concern for humanity. It
means there is yet hope for
us.

To protect your privacy,
don't waste words
with unwanted callers.
Your phone is part of your home. And at Mountain
Bell, we understand that when someone uses your
phone to invade your privacy, it's like an unwanted
visitor coming through your front door. But we want
you to know that you can have the last word with these
callers. By not wasting any words with them at all.
If the caller is a salesperson using a hard sell,
you don't have to listen. Just say you're not interested,
and hang up.
If you get an obscene call, or the caller remains
silent, don't stop to listen. Above all, don't talk to
them. Hang up on their hang-ups. And if these
callers keep after you or threaten you, get in touch
right away with the police and your local Mountain
Bell business office. We'll help you find other ways
to deal with these calls.
No matter what kind of unwanted calls you
get, let your actions speak louder than their words.
By hanging up. It's the best way we know to protect
the privacy of your home. And your phone.
For the way you live.

April 20, 1982
Volume 36, No. 20
Three months of grief,
sorrow, anger and possibly a
little reputation building came
to a head Sunday morning.
Student senators approved
budgets, and they were very
kind and possibly even
generous to the Retort Budget.
We have received less money
from the Associated Students
than the Retort received last
year, but most budgets were cut
so drastically that I feel very
fortunate.
Coming into the job of
Editor was a very difficult thing
and I still don't feel I have the
whole jist of the job down yet,
but one thing that has been
done this year, which probably
has never been done in the past
is that relations between the
college newspaper and the
student senators have
maintained a fairly positive
level.
I guess what I am saying is a
definite thank you kindly to all
of the senators for listening to
my requests and even
approving many of them. I had
plans to do several dynamic
things because I thought that it
would be extremely difficult to
both make points and keep
them. I don't know whether
you as senators were playing
favorites or whether I just did
my homework.
I did my homework and I
argued on logic and not
emotion. I guess that worked.
Oh well. Thanks. We're
gonna be hotter than hell next
year. It won't be too many
years before the Retort is self
sufficient. That's our
goal...we're gonna do hank
you, thank you oh t you
thank you.

Fat Cats, not the poor, are the
real 'welfare cheaters'
ASEMC Retort page two
Jack
Anderson
Washingtm
Merry-Go-Round
WASHINGTON--The
cost of welfare for wealthy
individuals and big business
is far greater than anything
the government spends on
welfare on mothers who are
struggling to feed and clothe
their children. In fact, if you
added up all the tax breaks
and other subsidies the
government gives to
business, it would come to
about $100 billion a year.
There are many ways
welfare is handed out to the
fat cats. One of them is
through the capital gains
tax. Cheating on this tax is
wide-spread.
According to the Internal
Revenue Service, 99 percent
of American wage earners
pay taxes on their incomes.
But only 56 percent of those
who make money from
capital investments pay
what they owe. Those are
the government's own
figures.
The tax collectors have a
simple suggestion for
catching these capital-gains
cheaters. All that is needed
is for brokers to report their
transactions to the IRS. But
the brokers don't like this
idea. They say the
paperwork would be
backbreaking. What they
don't bother to say, though,
is that they are already
reporting every transaction
to their customers. A copy
for Uncle Sam wouldn't be
all that much trouble.
That's just one example of
the way the rich are coddled.
Here's another: Back
during the Great Depres-sion,
the government
allowed corporations to sell
tax-exempt construction
bonds. The idea was to
encourage business and put
people back to work. The
tax exemption is still on the
books, and it has been used
to finance such boondoggles
as construction of golf
courses.
And, finally, there's the
little-known provision of the
tax laws that lets the
country's big defense
contractors put off their tax
bills. The Treasury
estimates that if this
loophole were closed it
would bring in $19 billion by
1987. But the defense
contractors have gotten so
used to this subsidy that
they now can't do without it.
They have warned that if the
tax break is taken away
from them, they'll simply
pass the buck--the big
bucks, that is--right along to
the government in their
next contracts.
President Reagan's
budget-cutters are worried
about the undeserving poor.
The ones they should really
be worried about are the
undeserving rich.
GUNBOAT DIPLOM-ACY:
Ten years ago, we
broke the story that the
United States had secretly
intervened in the internal
politics of Chile. The white
House had tried to block
Chile's president, Salvador
Allende, from coming to
power. It became a major
scandal.
Now the Reagan adminis-tration
may be getting
involved in a similar plot in
the Dominican Republic.
Already, American arms
are being rushed to this
Central American nation--
ostensibly to help ensure
that the May 16 presidential
election goes smoothly.
But the real reason for the
speeded-up arms deliveries
may be to prevent the
Dominicans from holding a
Wont to
adverti se?
Ca l I the
Retort
657-2.1V1
that the favorite candidate
will never become presi-dent.
The likely winner is
Jorge Blanco. In Gen.
Lachapelle's eyes, Blanco is
a flaming communist.
So the general's lobbyists
in Washington have been
pleading with the Pentagon
to expedite the weapons that
the Dominican army has
ordered from the United
States. Lachapelle's men
freely admit that the
general will use his U.S.-
purchased guns to seize
power if he thinks Blanco
has a chance of winning the
election.
The arms shipments
include 1,200 M-16 auto-matic
rifles. That's more
than enough firepower to
free election. A few words of
explanation:
The Dominican army's
chief of staff, Gen. Manuel
Lachapelle, is determined
make a crucial difference in
a country that is only half
the size of Indiana.
This apparent return to
gunboat diplomacy has gone
largely unnoticed in the
uproar over El Salvador and
Nicaragua.
The Pentagon brass
appear to have swallowed
Gen. lachapelle's story of a
communist takeover in the
Dominican Republic hook,
line and sinker. Unfortu-nately,
all the general has
come up with in the way of
evidence is some imflamma-tory
wall graffiti--and his
own opinion that Jorge
Blanco is a communist.
Our sources in the State
Department say that Gen.
Lachapelle is wrong. They
say Blanco isn't a commu-nist
at all, but a left-of-center
Social Democrat.
One expert described him as
the Willy Brandt of the
Caribbean.
In any case, the United
states is supposed to
promote free elections, not
prevent them.

Reggie Roving. Let's Get a Few
Things Straight...
Last week I did write one
little ditty about budgets for
this issue but everyone except
A.L. Jones disapproved of it
including the editor so they
pretty much told me in not too
many words to:
"Write something else, this is
terrible, they'll kill us, they'll
demand to find out if you really
are Gary Anderson. This is the
sort of trash that gets everyone
mad at us!"
So here I am with not much
more of a topic than nothing,
so I asked my big brother
Reggie (who incidentally now
has a job with a future) what he
does when he is in a slump. He
told me to either give up writing
or make a list, Well before I
make the list I want to clear up
a few things: For those of you
on the floor, the editor Tom
Puckett is NOT running for a
senate position. Sure, at one
time he thought that he could
get more money for the Retort
by being a senator and he told
me he got an "A" in
Parliamentary Procedure, but
he isn't running for the position
because he says "I'd rather
watch them and snicker,
besides, if I were a senator, I'd
have to write lots of nice things
about myself. The whole staff
would hate me, and Cindy
Favero would stop being nice
to me."
But anyway, here's another
fact: In "Beneath the Rims"
every character in there is a
caricature of someone who
works on this floor, and
although the staff hasn't got
too political with the parody,
it's getting more so each week.
I guess I'm supposed to be Jim.
ha.
I did buy my girlfriend
flowers though. She seems
real happy about it. She was
actually being nice to me this
week for about three days in a
row. I have a new one, she's
even pretty cute. I think she
should be a cheerleader,
although she looks like a
basketball player. But anyway
who cares really? I know you
don't. _
Ever read the Sensuous
Man? It's pretty good, and for
sure it will get you more women
if you read it. This week I have
compiled a list of tips and
warnings for you men. It's
really spring (until it snows
and melts for the 88th time) and
I know you men are looking for
women. So here's a few tips
from my own version of "The
Sensuous Man". Go get 'em
men...
1. Refrain from using the
following terms around a
female unless you are referring
to her vacuum cleaner or you
are very very drunk: hoser,
hosebag, hose head or
hosemonster.
2. Don't beat her with broken
bottles.
3. When eating dinner with her
in Saga (Uh, excuse me, the
other side) try not to throw up
in yours or her food.
4. Take vitamins so that you
look healthy.
5. Don't use the words jam,
hump, or pork around her
unless you are talking about
your mom's strawberry jam, a
camel's hump, or the quality of
the bacon you had for
breakfast.
6. If you are in a bar and you
are very drunk, and you meet
(pick up) an interesting young
19 year old, don't tell her your
life story. She doesn't want to
hear it and she'll hate you
forever and you will be
embarrassed next time you see
her and she'll tell all her friends
about you.
7. Never go out with the sister
of a friend. She'll tell your
friend all about you and your
friend will use it against you
next time you need some cash.
8. Don't try anything kinky on
the first date. Sheep and
grapefruits don't turn a girl on
after one night out with you.
9. Practice tongue exercises.
10. Remember that the terms
"Grow Up" and "Eat Merde"
probably mean she doesn't like
you.
So there you have it. The
list of the ten greatest tips you'll
need to stay and "get skin" with
girls. Go home and try it now.
Oh yeah, almost forgot the
most important thing: it's o.k.
to use the words sow, horse,
hog, giant, Baby Huey, cow,
pig, 'this big around', or buffalo
unless you are referring to the
animals mentioned, the
cartoon character, Goliath (of
David and ...) or a swimming
pool, or at a secret fraternity
meeting.

BENEATH
THE
RIMS
The plot thickens in
"Beneath the Rims" this
week as Nick is still hard at
work on his campaign trail
for ASEMC Senate. It's
been a tough week for the
young man who means well
but he doesn't know it yet
nor does anybody else. This
is the eternal dilemma.
Let's give him credit for
being persistent. Annoying
but persistent. And now as
if Nick didn't have enough
problems, a female is warm
for his form. Leona
Chesepeke can't explain it
but her friend Mary Clout is
trying to convince her it's a
mirage.
Leona: What?
Mary: Huh?
Leona: Didn't you say
something?
Mary: No, I thought you
said something.
Leona: Nope, it wasn't me.
Mary: Hmmmm.
Leona: Well, let's put
content into this episode.
Mary: I totally agree.
Leona: Okay, here's the
scoop. Last Friday I saw
him out on the lawn selling
those sno-cones for votes and
I said to myself, "What a
twirp."
Mary: You're not alone.
Lama: Anyway, I didn't
think of him all weekend
and then on Monday it hit
me like a ton of sheep dip. I
found myself following him
all around campus.
Mary: You are alone there.
Leona: Wherever he went
all you had to do was look a
few feet behind him and you
would see me admiring each
stumbling step.
Mary: That was you?
Leona: Uh huh.
Mary: But Leona, you were
dressed in a top coat,
sunglasses and hat.
Leona: Well, he's a loser, I
didn't want to be noticed.
Mary: Come on Leona, snap
out of it. You can't have a
crush on Nick O'Backbite.
It would go against every
biological law that was ever
conceived by the world's
most respected biologists. A
perfectly normal human
being such as yourself,
falling for a different
species. Nick is a Canis
Loserus so it just wouldn't
work. My God, what would
your parents think if you
brought him home and he
started talking about that
time he was a kid and he was
crowned King Pea at the
Red Lodge Pea Festival in
July of 1967. Geez Leona,
they would show him the
front door faster than you
can say, "Shut up Nick."
Leona: Granted, fascinating
he isn't, but...
Mary: Good Lord, he can't
even pass an Interpersonal
Communication exam.
Leona: Why does this have
to happen to me? I go to
church, I eat my vegetables,
I make my bed every
morning, I bus my own tray
in SAGA...
Mary: You do?
Leona: Well, you know that
guy who has that cleaning
bottle hanging out of his
pocket? He always looks too
busy so I don't want to
bother him.
Mary: Am I even con-vincing
you at all that this
guy will burn your brains
more than MATH 450
Leona: (Nick is slowly
approaching the girls)
Darn, here he comes. See
look at me, I can't take my
eyes off of him.
Mary: Come on Leona, you
can do it! They said Carrie
Nation couldn't do it, but she
did. They said the "Retort"
ASEMC Retort page four
would fold, but only the
pages do. They said being on
UAB was boring...well,
(clears throat) that's not the
point. The point is why
screw up your life by
admiring that? Wake up
Leona! Be yourself!
Be...(CRASH! BOING!
CLAMMOR! B-R-E-A-K!)
See, now just look at that.
It's disgusting. Nick just
fell into the Jabberwocky ice
cream cooler and tipped
over the popcorn machine
and is proceeding to eat up
his mess. You want to go out
with that?
Leona: Is he alright? Will
he live?
Mary: Sheeez! Dear, you're
fired as a respected person.
(Jim runs over to the
struggling Nick)
Jim: If I tip over the pop
machine, do I have to drink
all I spill? (who wrote this?)

Svehla Impresses EMC
Photo by Bob Pace
Bozeman artist Rudolf
Svehla capped an exhibit of
his works with a reception
and slide show last Friday
night in the first floor
gallery in the Liberal Arts
Building on EMC's campus.
Svehla is originally from
Cechloslovakia and more
recently taught high school
art in Bozeman. He
currently is a graduate
student at Montana State
University.
Bozeman artist
Rudolf Svehla
His colorful, original, and
somewhat grid-like paint-ings
were done in what
Svehla calls a "human" size.
He feels that if a painting is
too big, it loses context and
the painter loses his control
of and relationship to the
painting.
His paintings reflect that
opinion, and as art student
George Place put it, "I was
impressed!"
The independent art show,
comprised of student work, will
be exhibited in the LA gallery,
on first floor Liberal Arts
building.. Come over and see it!

animals to determine causes
of masochistic behavior.
Dr. Marvin Bulgatz has
been assisted in his research
by Debra Archer from
Worden, MT who is an
undergraduate student
majoring in Psychology.
They have co-authored a
paper which the two of them
will present to members of
the Rocky Mountain
Psychological Association,
April 28, in Albuquerque,
New Mexico.
"There are certain
conditions under which
animals will show masochis-tic
or self-punitive behav-ior"
Bulgatz said. "At the
same time, there are
conditions under which
animals will not show this
type of behavior. Without
getting too technical, these
same conditions appear
to either cause or not cause
masochistic behavior in
humans."
The title of their paper is
"Self-Punitive Behavior:
Affects of Masochistic
Acquisition and Spaced
Extension Trials."

Sherry Kuntz-a senior
majoring in Public Admin-istration.
Platform: As a candidate for
Student Senate, I believe
there are two issues
pertinent to this election.
Specifically, they are
involvement and money.
Making every student
Senator more accessible to
students is a number one
goal for me. In order for this
to occur, we need to rid the
image of a Senator as being
on a different level
compared with students.
We have to remember that
we are all here for the same
purpose-achieving an
education. In order for a
governing body like student
government to operate
effectively it needs input
from those it affects (in this
instance that's YOU, the
student). EMC students
have had a history of being
apathetic. As a student at
various institutions, I've
seen what works and what
doesn't work; and believe
me apathy does NOT work.
In order for students to get
what they want, more action
and involvement must be
taken.
Having to work my way
through school (as do most
EMC students) I realize the
importance of proper and
efficient spending of each
and every dollar. As a
Senator on Ways and Means
(the committee that spends
your $20 per quarter
activity fee), I've learned to
appreciate this aspect more.
As a candidate, I stand firm
on the idea of spending
student monies on
STUDENT affairs; not on
administrative areas such
as salaries.
As for my qualifications, I
believe I have a well-rounded
background. Since
I've been a senator at EMC I
have served on various
committees including Ways
and Means, Campus Safety
Committee, Presidential
Search and Screening
Committee for student
affairs, and Selection
Committee for Distinguish-ed
Professor in the area of
teaching.

Mike Dallas-a junior from
Lewistown is majoring in
accounting.
I am running for the
position of student senator
because I would like to
become more involved with
EMC. I feel that there is
much more to gain from
college than what is learned
in the classroom. A position
on the student senate would
be a rewarding experience.
Some of the student senate
functions are administering
and distributing the
quarterly student activity
fees, forming various
policies concerning student
affairs and acting as a link
between students, faculty
and the administration. I
would like to take part in
some of the decision making
that takes place within the
student senate. I have
attended EMC for three
years now and I feel that I
am qualified for the
position.
Jim Martin-a senior from
Malta, Montana is majoring
in Music Education.
Platform: Having just
completed a quarter of
Ways & Means negotiations
of budget requests and
closing out my first term as
a senator, I found a great
understanding of possible
economic manipulations,
ways of maintaining a solid
ground for keeping student
interests foremost, and
certainly for gaining
knowledge to do a better job.
It has really been a learning
year and a very good
experience for me. I hope
for the chance to serve
student interests again this
coming year, and I'd
appreciate your vote.
Rory J. Barnaby-a senior in
Accounting.
Platform: Having served on
Senate for the past two
years, I have found it
necessary to effectively
communicate before formu-lating
decisions. I often
found that the final actions
of Senate did not accurately
represent the will of the
student body. With this in
mind, it is my goal to
continue to encourage
students to involve them-selves
in the decision
making process. Thank you.

Tammy Klein-a sophomore
majoring in Education.
Platform: Hi, my name is
Tammy Klein and this is my
second year of running for
an ASEMC Student Senate
position. Last year I entered
the running knowing very
little of what would be
involved and the procedures
used in allocating money
and approving policy. After
serving a year I feel I have
learned tremendously and
-still have so much more to
learn in helping serve the
best interests of the
students. I know now how
the system functions and I
want very much to use this
knowledge in serving our
school. I am proud to be a
student at EMC and would
be even prouder to represent
you as a member on Student
Senate. I would be more
than happy to talk to you
about any questions or
suggestions for our school
and do my best to get things
done. I would appreciate
your support on 4/28/82.
See you at the Election
table.
Mike Birch-a sophomore
from Culbertson is majoring
in Psychology.
Platform: Having been
elected as a freshman
Senator and being very
involved with various
activities such as the
Triangle Day Care Board of
Directors, Issues and
Answers, Inter-Varsity and
a full academic load, I feel I
have become very qualified
to run for Senator at Large.
I have come to be very
interested about what goes
on for the students of EMC
and care very much about
the outcome of some very
major decisions. If students
have a problem in any area
within the system, please
feel free to let me know; and,
if elected, I will do my best to
work toward solving these
problems of EMC.
Russell Shaffer-a junior
majoring in Marketing.
Platform: Since I do not
belong to any on-campus
clubs or organizations, I will
not have any pet clubs or
organizations that I would
be prejudice for or against
before another. So I believe
I would be a very impartial
senator in all things,
especially when it comes to
allocating your funds. Next
year being a Legislative
year, we will be fighting for
funds in Helena. I feel I
could do a good job at it.

Michael Walz-Class of 83 is
majoring in Secondary Ed-
Biology.
Platform: To put it simply,
my aim is to increase the
effectiveness of student
budgeting. My primary
goal in this area is to
promote a non-biased
system of distributing
students' money. Secondly,
as next year is a legislative
year, I will lobby towards
putting EMC on the same
funding level as MSU and U
of M. This will give us the
flexibility to expand EMC to
meet increasing student
enrollment and needs.
Jeff Kinman-a senior
majoring in Biology.
Platform: My platform is
short, sweet, and to the
point. I will primarily work
towards establishing a more
equitable system for
distributing student money.
(i.e. distributing monies to
various clubs and organiza-tions).
I will also work on
expanding and stream-lining
the school of liberal
arts. (i.e. develop the four
year nursing degree located
entirely at Eastern and also
expanding the business
school so as to offer an
MBA). Finally, I will work
towards elevating EMC to
university status which will
add prestige to the school as
well as alleviate the problem
of lower salary bases for our
professors.
Genia D. Knox- a junior
from Columbus, has an
extended major in Psychol-ogy.
Platform: Currently I am a
junior attending EMC.
have been involved in Ski
Club as Vice President and
will be president for the 82-
83 year. I've also been
involved in Rodeo Club.
During the past three years
I have been a worker and
manager of the Game Room.
Another year was spent in
Pep Band. I am attempting
to acquire a well-rounded
education and I feel that if I
could serve for a year as a
student senator that this
would help to give me
valuable experience. I am
interested in EMC and want
to devote a portion of my last
year serving the college as
best I can.

Julie Knebel-a senior
majoring in Elementary
Education.
Platform: I have served for
two years on the ASEMC
Student Senate and I believe
I have gained an under-standing
of the various
operations and functions of
the Student Senate. As a
senator I had the oppor-tunity
to take part in much
debate and investigation
regarding the individual
budget requests for the
upcoming year. Through-out
the process, I became
aware of the serious
commitment a Senator must
possess and the vital role a
senator plays as student
leader. Unfortunately, not
enough students on this
campus care about student
government, but I believe
that an active and concerned
government can be very
effective here at EMC. I
would be an asset to the
Student Senate because I
listen and I care. Please give
me your support on April
28th.
T
Carolyn Fraser-a junior
from Big Timber is majoring
in Communication Arts.
Platform: I wish to be an
EMC senator in order that I
may help to better the
Student Government here
and the college as a whole. I
feel that the student body
needs to be represented
more fully in order to
encourage more enthusias-tic
participation by all of our
students.
I believe that we do not
promote our college widely
enough within the city of
Billings and the state of
Montana. One of my goals
will be to speak to 1982 high
school seniors and encour-age
them to attend our
school. • It is my firm belief
that involvement by
students in the college will
stimulate higher scholastic
achievements as well as self
satisfaction and recognition
from the outlying commun-ities.
Billie Miller-a junior from
Lewistown, majoring in
Accounting.
Platform: I am running for
Senator because I am
concerned about the
students of EMC. Having
been a senator for one year, I
feel I am well acquainted
with the needs of the
students. Being an
accounting major, I feel I
am qualified to assist in the
allocation of the student
activity fees (approximately
$200,000 per year). Each
student is entitled to receive
quality services for his
activity fee and I am
determined to see that
everyone gets his money's
worth. This goal cannot be
accomplished without your
help. Open communication
between senate and the
student body is essential
because your concerns
cannot be addressed unless
you make them known. As a
senator, I will continue to
listen to and act upon your
needs to enhance extra-curricular
life at EMC.

Randy Kloepfer-a sopho-more
majoring in Pre-Med.
Platform: In my past two
years at EMC, it has been
my experience that many
times student funding has
been misdirected. It is my
goal to realign priorities for
equally distributing student
monies. Also, as next year is
a legislative year, I would
have the opportunity to
lobby for more funds for the
entire college. This would
enable us to expand existing
schools and move towards
establishment of university
status.

fun. The audience was involved
and that made it even better. I
was a bit wary of the audience
when Rock (the wolf) told the
first joke, which I thought was
more than just funny but
unfortunately nobody laughed
at the wolf. It got rolling
though as soon as Gramma
started her one liners.
I really felt good after going
to see the Hairy Falsetto. All
of the actors and actresses did
an excellent job in their roles. I
thought it was cast very well.
Gary did an excellent job and I
suppose we should mention the
name of the light man, Bob
Durden.
Go if you can. The Hairy
Falsetto is a great play and its
funny and its easy to follow. It
will be shown next Friday at

EMC READERS'
THEATRE!
Ironic humor was alive
and well in England's
Middle Ages. This fact is
proven by the great classic
of 14th Century British
literature, "The Canterbury
Tales" by Geoffrey Chaucer.
On April 22,23, and 24, four
of tales will be performed in
a lively, animated style in
EMC's Readers' Theatre on
the sixth floor of the Liberal
Arts Building at 8:15 p.m.
each evening.
Some people who have
never seen a Readers'
Theatre production picture
a group of peopl standing in
a static row, droning away
from books held up to their
faces. Nothing could be
further from the truth.
Readers' Theatre is a unique
style of performing art that
combines dynamic oral
interpretation with the
costuming, lights, and sets
(although more simplified)
of a theatrical performance.
EMC's April present-ation
will give the audience
a view of marriage, Chaucer
style. The gallant, idealized
Knight, the saucy,experi-enced
Wife of Bath, the rich,
self deceiving Merchant,
and the licentious Franklin
tell their stories with
Chaucer both within and
without the tales, weaving
them together and separa-ting
them by his character
development. At times, the
tale being told and the style
of presentation clash with
humorous irony.
Dr. Anneke Jan Boden,
who has been directing
EMC's Readers' Theatre
since its inception at
Eastern, is also directing
this lively, fast-paced
production, which is being
presented in modern
English. Tami Christoffer-son
is Assistant Director.
The company of "Select-ed
Tales from Chaucer"
consists of Jeff Hannah,
John Gribas, Daryl Juden,
Randy Kloepfer, Agnes
Lemieux, Cindy Jesse,
Cindy Landers, John Boyd,
Doug Novakovich, George
Place, and Andy Watne. The
production is being handled
by George Place, and he and
Lee Saylor are in charge of
lighting.
Tickets for "Selected
Tales" are $2.75 for adults,
$.75 for EMC students, and
are available at the door.
The Hairy Falsetto was a
most bizarre play. Director
Gary Anderson worked long
and hard to get this just down
and even at the last moments
before curtain call he was
saying "If we only had one
more Week". The actors didn't
need one more week. Bess
Rogers, who portrayed the
Grandmother of Miss Little
Red Riding Hood, did a superb
job. Her role included several
dry mispronounciations of
several words and phrases that
made the audience roll in the
aisles.
The story line goes like this:
an innocent wolf (played by the
fun and funny Rock McLean)
is being tried for the murder of
grandmother. John Gribas
played the prosecuting
attorney and Little Red was
played by Cindy Warner. The
judge, a very funny bumbling
stumbling fun kinda character
was played by an old hat in the
drama department Jeff
Boschee. The trial is a funny
look at the world of fairy tails.
The wolf's defense attorney is
only himself and several
versions of the same story of
little red riding hood.
The play was more than just
funny, it was more than just
Director Gary David Anderson
And I am not giving up. Weezey.

HI Fl UPDATE
Hi-Fi verses Mid-Fi. by David Perkins
Hi-h Update is a new feature
this quarter discussing stereo
equipment. The writer, David
Perkins, is currently a senior
enrolled in music at EMC.
Although he plays French Horn, he
is a vocalist with concert
performance as a goal. He has a
variety of music tastes which include
opera, classical, jazz, and some
contemporary music. Being an
audiophile, he has listened to many
systems while building up his own.
Stereo equipment can be
classed into two categories,
Hi-Fi or Mid-Fi. Hi-Fi
equipment is only the best
electronics which present a
musical reproduction. Mid-Fi
equipment is only a poor
immitation of Hi-Fi. Many
mass production companies
sell Mid-Fi electronics but
label them Hi-Fi.
Most Mid-Fi electronics
are overrated and overpriced.
The companies which sell
Mid-Fi have seasonal sales
which help sell their
products. However, even the
so-called "sale" prices are
usually too high considering
the quality of their
equipment. A person can
easily spend more money
than necessary but get an
inferior product.
Hi-Fi equipment should be
judged by the undistorted
musical qualities. The
equipment should honor the
music. Hi-Fi should not be
judged on the basis of the
decibels produced. Even
though Hi-Fi equipment may
not be able to be heard ten
blocks away, it usually has
enough power to make a
person deaf if he so desires.
Before shopping for
equipment a person should
attend a live acoustic music
performance. He must not go
to a concert which uses
electronics to amplify the
sound because he needs to
hear the instruments
undistorted. By going to an
acoustic concert the
individual will have an
undistorted example to
compare equipment to. While
listening, the locations of the
different instruments and
the effect of the locations
upon the music should be
observed. If a person closes
his eyes, he should be able to
point out the locations of the
various instruments just by
listening. He not only should
be able to distinguish
whether an instrument is on
the right or the left, but
whether it is in the front or
the back.
A Hi-Fi system should not
only reproduce the tone of an
instrument, but it should also
reproduce the tone of an
instrument, but it should also
reproduce the feeling of its
location and the separation
between the instruments. In
other words, a person should
be able to close his eyes and
see the band on stage. A good
system should sound like a
live concert, not a couple of
boxes on a shelf.
Watch Hi-Fi Update for
coming articles on items such
as: amplifiers, pre-amps,
tuners, tape decks, turn-tables,
and speakers. The
articles will include tips on
how to evaluate stereo
equipment and cut all the
statistical garbage. There
will be warnings about
pitfalls and hungry salesmen.
So, be sure to follow Hi-Fi
Update to learn how to get
the best equipment for the
money.

Anti-Nuke Prof Speaks
by Todd Barnhart
(Ground Zero Week is April 18
through 24. In 120 cities
throughout America Ground Zero
organizers will be demonstrating to
the public what would be the effects
of a 1-megaton nuclear weapon
exploding at 6000 feet. In Billings,
Ground Zero Week is being
sponsored by Clergy and Laity
Concerned. Dick Ramsey is a
founder member of CLC. He is a
professor of biology at Rocky
Mountain College where I spoke
with him last week.
Nuclear war, if it comes,
will be the worst of human
atrocities, yet few people let
their fear and repulsion of
such a holocaust motivate
them to action. Dick Ramsey
was concerned about the
problem but it took the MX
shellgame of President
Carter to get Dick involved.
'It became clear that
something outrageous was
going through Congress
with no debate,' Dick said in
reference to the MX
deployment proposals. He
felt it would take a
grassroots-level protest to
prevent the proposals from
being passed, so he helped
form Community Peace
Advocates in the spring of
1981. That year they hosted
the MX Roadshow in Billings;
when that group disbanded
Dick helped form the Clergy
and Laity Concerned chapter
in town. CLC opposes not
only MX but social accept-ance
of war, an attitude Dick
Ramsey strongly dislikes.
Dick is not a radical or
troublemaker by appearance;
he dresses quietly and speaks
gently. But appearances say
little. He is obviously
concerned and works hard to
persuade others of the
madness of a nuclear
'defense.' Currently he is
helping CLC and other
groups statewide to collect
the necessary 18,000
signatures to put Initiative 91
on the fall ballot. Previously
he and CLC convinced the
City and County Planning
Board to come out in
opposition to deployment of
the MX locally.
'That night may be the
highlight of our group so far,'
Dick said. This victory gave
impetus to local anti-nuclear
efforts. I asked Dick what
EMC students could do to
become involved, recogniz-ing
that most had little spare
time. He had several
suggestions: r.
Write a letter to your
Congressional delegation,
urging support of the
Kennedy/Hatfield Nuclear
Freeze Resolution; further,
urge them to oppose MX
deployment and the develop-ment
of chemical/biological
weaponry. 'It only takes
about a half-hour to write;'
he said, 'and a letter really
does count...it is the most
effective use of time.'
Circulate petitions to place
Initiative 91 on the ballot.
For those of registration age,
contact the campus pastor,
Peter Monkres, about
alternatives to draft
registration.
On this last point Dick had
some strong words.
'Young men are not really
concerned with registration;
it seems trivial compared to
the draft but it is very
important, because if the
draft comes it would be rapid.
They would have very little
time to get their act together.
It is important for any young
person who is of registration
age to get in touch with his
own value systems to see if it
in any way conflicts with
military service. On the
bottom line military service is
not about learning a trade-it
is about killing enemy
soldiers.'
This statement makes it
clear that Dick's concern
reaches beyond the immedi-ate
threat of MX deployment;
quality human life is his deep
concern. He is encouraged at
the rapidly growing support
the anti-nuclear movement is
receiving. Request to see
'The Last Epidemic' are
increasing; 'It is exciting to
see demand for this
particular film,' he says. And
it3s exciting to see people like
Dick Ramsey becoming more
than concerned and getting
involved actively in the effort
to eliminate the nuclear
obsession and replace it with
concern for humanity. It
means there is yet hope for
us.

To protect your privacy,
don't waste words
with unwanted callers.
Your phone is part of your home. And at Mountain
Bell, we understand that when someone uses your
phone to invade your privacy, it's like an unwanted
visitor coming through your front door. But we want
you to know that you can have the last word with these
callers. By not wasting any words with them at all.
If the caller is a salesperson using a hard sell,
you don't have to listen. Just say you're not interested,
and hang up.
If you get an obscene call, or the caller remains
silent, don't stop to listen. Above all, don't talk to
them. Hang up on their hang-ups. And if these
callers keep after you or threaten you, get in touch
right away with the police and your local Mountain
Bell business office. We'll help you find other ways
to deal with these calls.
No matter what kind of unwanted calls you
get, let your actions speak louder than their words.
By hanging up. It's the best way we know to protect
the privacy of your home. And your phone.
For the way you live.
